(written by Ben Mabry)
Next door romantics,
Studying the lip-lines and
Glass in each other's eyes,
Make me uneasy.
Whispering under sheets
In otherwise empty
apartments, they see only the tops of waves.
The sky is too far
To look at, and they settle.
The sheets are the surface,
The bodies are the water.
But they feel afloat.
When it comes time to shout,
The water will consume them.
Surviving alone
The water will consume them.
Surviving alone, in the same space
